The Vineland Chemical Superfund Site is located in the northwestern portion of Vineland, in Cumberland County, south central New Jersey, in an area of mixed industrial, low-density residential and agricultural properties. The site is bordered immediately to the north by other industrial properties and the Blackwater Branch, a perennial stream that flows westward to the Maurice River. The site consists of several operable units. This RSE specifically addresses Operable Unit 2 (OU2), which manages migration of the groundwater contaminant plume. The OU2 remedy is in the seventh year of a Long-Term Remedial Action (LTRA). In 2014, the responsibility for the OU2 remedy will be transferred to the State of New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP). |
